A major crash shut down southbound US-23 at Thompson Road in Fenton Township Tuesday afternoon. Traffic was forced off the freeway as backups stretched for miles toward Grand Blanc Road.
A crash on northbound US-23 in Mundy Township closed the freeway and snarled traffic across Flint area surface streets this morning, compounded by fog and slick roads and multiple secondary crashes.
After an accident this summer that caused major damage to the bridge over US-23 on Lahring Road, crews will be closing down a portion of the road on Wednesday for repairs. Starting at 4 p.m., MDOT will be closing Lahring Road from North Road to Saint Andrews Way to replace the concrete barrier wall.
